Nigerian Afrobeats star Oluwatosin Ajibade, widely known as Mr Eazi, has set Twitter ablaze with a peculiar dream involving fellow musician Davido. On September 29, 2024, Mr Eazi shared a vivid nocturnal vision where the Grammy-nominated artist allegedly gifted him a staggering $2.3 million.
At 9:15 AM West African Time, Mr Eazi took to his verified Twitter account, now known as X, to share his surreal experience. I dream sey OBO dash me 2.3 million dollars,” he wrote, using Davido’s popular nickname “OBO” (an acronym for Omo Baba Olowo, meaning ‘Son of a Rich Man’ in Yoruba)
- Twitter user @Rito quipped, “Go back and dream again. That money is too small,” highlighting the perceived wealth of both artists.
- @KellyBonito suggested, “One verse from him to give you that money,” referencing the lucrative nature of musical collaborations in the industry.
- @BigCreddited expressed doubt, stating, “OBO no get 2.3 million dollar self,” questioning the feasibility of such a large gift.
This dream revelation comes on the heels of Mr Eazi’s recent real-estate venture in Rwanda. In June 2023, the artist proudly showcased his multi-million naira estate under construction in the East African nation.
The Rwanda project is more than just a house,” Mr Eazi had stated during the estate’s unveiling. It represents the growing interconnectedness of African nations and the potential for cross-border investments in the continent.
The artist’s diversification into real estate underscores the expanding business interests of Nigerian musicians beyond their primary craft.
As of press time, Davido has not responded to Mr Eazi’s dream tweet. The silence has led to further speculation and jokes among fans.
The incident, while lighthearted, highlights the power of social media in shaping public perceptions and interactions within the Nigerian music industry. As both Mr Eazi and Davido continue to make waves both locally and internationally, their every move – even in dreams – captures public attention and fuels the ever-dynamic narrative of Afrobeats’ global ascension.
